You need way lighter oil in your shocks, Like 20w there way to slow to work perfect...... lizards are known for this. Your build is super clean and perfect, exactly my style. Nice work Bud.........Dan
Looks awesome bud. I have all the rock pirates stuff too just got the vrd too. Going to be a sick build. Nice job. I’m in Canada winter starting to hit now. Thanks for sharing ……
I clicked this video in hopes to get some insight on how you mounted the body to the chassis. I have the Carbon kit and that same body, but I dont know how to effectively mount it up.
Nice, because I almost ordered some power wagon sliders, which were Not going to work with my chassis. I'll definitely get them when they do have them ready 👍
@EastBayCrawlers yeah, I think they more specific fit to their Kraken and Interceptor chassis'..otherwise as with mine I've noticed others altering their hardline beds as well. 🤙
@@SoCalCrawlers They don’t really fit those well either. I think it was originally made for the enduro chassis if I remember correctly. I have an interceptor and kraken and it isn’t made for either.
It only fits nice with the scx10 II and the enduro yep. got one on my capra interceptor build. It pushed the sides out a bit. Still ok though@@NovemberFoxtrotRC
I appreciate it, thank you! The purpose is basically to protect the exterior of the servo from rocks or debris being scrapped up against it...I suppose it's not too necessary, but I figured what the heck!! Lol.
Thank you, I appreciate it. Some popular spots that I have been to are Del Cerro crawl spot, Santee Boulders , Sunset cliffs, Torrey pines glider port, and up where I live , there's a small rock cluster on top of Double Peak park, at the top of the mountain next to the parking lot overlook..🤙
You said your truck was clicking. But aligned the drive shafts from axels to transmission and it went away? I’m having the same issue, except it’s not going away. Been trouble shooting for a while now and cannot figure it out 🤷🏻♂️
So yes, I realized that my driveshafts were out of "phase", they weren't aligned properly.(Ensure that both ends match-up where the set screws go)...I corrected it and later just switched then out for some Metal Incision driveshafts. I also added some of the blue vanquish grease on the gears. Been perfect ever since. 🤙
@@SoCalCrawlers thanks dude. That’s what I’ve done and it’s still clicking unfortunately. 🤷🏻♂️ may play around with it some more, then may need to try out Incision shafts. Thanks again. Blessings! 🙏🏻
@NewLifeRC989 Anytime 🤙 one last thing to check that just came to mind. Check over all of the transmission assembly, gears, especially stop pins. One on mine came out somehow as I put it together. So otherwise, get it all sorted. 🔥☠️🔥👌

If you remove that front cross brace you can velcro the battery right on top of servo
Awesome build. Great walk through of the entire rig. Looks like an absolute beast!
Thank you, I appreciate it. 👍
That's a sik ride. I think I'm gona order one soon.
👊🔥👊 Thank you
Cool build, super clean! Im trying to sell of some to build a similar set up out of my dsm carbon chassis
Looks awesome bud. I have all the rock pirates stuff too just got the vrd too. Going to be a sick build. Nice job. I’m in Canada winter starting to hit now. Thanks for sharing ……
Thank you! I appreciate it. You will enjoy yours as well 👍 Have a great day
@@SoCalCrawlers looking forward to more of your videos.
Beautiful Rig Sir
Thank you, I appreciate it 👍 Have a good one 🤙
Very nice Car😍🎉👌🏼 LG Manuel
Appreciate it 🔥☠️🔥
Sick build!!
Thank you, I appreciate it. 👊👊
I clicked this video in hopes to get some insight on how you mounted the body to the chassis. I have the Carbon kit and that same body, but I dont know how to effectively mount it up.
There are plenty of other videos and ideas on how to mount this body. You have to get creative and or attach it using a bed like I am using. 👍
What’s body is it
Rock Pirates should be making some sliders for this soon.
Nice, because I almost ordered some power wagon sliders, which were Not going to work with my chassis. I'll definitely get them when they do have them ready 👍
I really wish they’d make the beds chassis specific as well. They dont really fit anything properly.

Which set of incision drive shafts did you get and what’s the side pieces on your skid plate on the outside? Love the truck great job
They are the driveshafts for the SCX10/SCX10ii..they are a perfect fit . The sides pieces are the rock sliders. 🤙
@@SoCalCrawlers thank you
How did you go about determining where to drill the body post holes and what did ya drill with?
I determined the body post mounts prior to painting the body, I used a drill and some small drill bits 1/16" up to 1/4". Then viola it was done 🤙
So uh.....nice build. Thanx for sharing. I have never heard of a servo shield. What is the purpose of that?
Thanx
I appreciate it, thank you! The purpose is basically to protect the exterior of the servo from rocks or debris being scrapped up against it...I suppose it's not too necessary, but I figured what the heck!! Lol.
Nice build. Hey, where are the crawl spots in San Diego? I work down there from time to time.

Awesome build. Do you have a link for the purple cone washers?

I could never tune the Lizards to my liking....I put the stock S8Es back on. Can you share how you set yours up?
Yes, I have them set up with the 2 hole diaphrams f/r, 32.5wt/50wt, long soft spring only f/r. 🤌
Nice build! Is that the 3 or 3.16" bumpers?
Thank you..they are the 3"'ers!! 👌
what are the little purple screw spacers called from Rock Pirates? Thanks@@SoCalCrawlers

How did u get your desert lizard shocks to do that pull?
Used long soft springs..40w oil, 2 hole diaphragms. 👍
Dumb question cause im still a newb, thats the vrd chassis right not the Rock Pirates?
Not at all 🤙, it is the Vanquish VRD chassis, with Rock Pirates add ons.
